Dynamic and engaging, Knack II works as a solo-player or multiplayer game.

Features

Classic platformer action - Knack's size-shifting ways comes into play with classic platforming action, allowing players to take advantage of his abilities in order to move past revolving platforming sequences

Dynamic and robust combat system - with over 20 moves including flying kicks, boomerang attacks, powerful body slams, a barrage of multi-punches, and even parrying enemy attacks right back at them

Engaging puzzles - challenging and diverse puzzles will force players to take advantage of Knack's various ever-moving parts; whether it's utilizing his size-shifting abilities or implementing the right move at the perfect time

Co-Op mode - join in on the fun with an engaging two player co-op mode, which offers a variety of special two-person combo moves. Co-Op mode also allows players to seamlessly enter or leave the game at any given moment

I'm not a hardcore gamer, more into sports games and simple ones I can place with a group of friends so Knack is a great game to pickup and play at anytime that isn't too difficult but still quite fun.–JohnD

Great game.......but you may run into a glitch

Knack 2 is an excellent game. Great platforming and an improved fighting system from the first game in the series make this game fun to play. Fun until you run into glitches. You may miss a cut scene. You may not be able to enter a cut scene that requires button prompts and you'll be stuck because the game will glitch. This will then force you to reboot your PS4 and start the chapter from where you left off. It is not the worst problem, but it takes away from the experience. This game needed many patches to fix it, and sadly did not get them. I do really enjoy the game and will give it three stars, but if they make a Knack 3, Sony should give it more support than this fun but technically flawed game.

Had the free demo installed on PS4 for over a year and finally realized that I've played through that several times. No regrets so far in my decision to finally go out and buy the full game. Excellent price for a game that's just fun to play. Not very difficult but not simple enough to take away the fun. I haven't finished the game yet, but I fell I should mention that the plot has done nothing to catch my interest so far. This is a fun action-style game that you can just pick up and play for a little bit whenever.

Surprisingly Fun sequel

Let's be honest, the original Knack was so monotonous and boring it was a chore to play. The sequel is surprisingly fun and Knack sports a wider range of attacks and special moves. The platforming is also well thought out. There's more auto saves along the way so you won't have to repeat the whole stage even falling into the bottomless pit. The story is simple and not too long, but it's a much better sequel and enjoyable. First Knack is still hard to play through though and one could skip that, but don't let the original deter you from checking this one out.

If you liked the original version of Knack, you will LOVE this. It is truly couch co-op for local players and you can both play together as knack (one red and one blue) on the same screen. It seems like local co-op is so difficult to find now! There are a few parts than can be tricky for my 5 year old with timed button presses (reminds me of God of War) asking you to press x, then o, etc as they prompt you. She got the hang of it after a few rounds, but just a heads up. I would highly recommend this and I am so glad we added it to our collection!

As someone who was excited for the original Knack I was very disappointed to find that the first game never moved beyond the basic concepts introduced in the first hour and felt very repetitive and dull up to the end of the experience. Knack II has taken the criticism levied at the first game to heart and made a host of improvements including greatly improved combat and exploration. It still won't blow anyone away with its graphics or game play but I can fully recommend this game to anyone who is interested in a family friendly platformer.

Like the few, not afraid to admit it but I enjoyed the first back when it first released and received tons of criticism by journalist who sucked at it or games in general (typical). I beat the first in all difficulties well anything above Easy. Now this, it isnt as challenging as the first but it remains as an enjoyable platformer/brawler. I definitely recommend it. GOTY right lol. Nah but seriously, its fun and if you got a family member or friend then let them grab the second controller for double the fun.

So Much Better than the Original

Knack 2 is "Family Friendly" game that feels like it should have been on Nintendo 64 or Wii. Collect relics and make your monster grow larger to bash boss baddies. Dump those relics to shrink and fit through tight door frames. Like other platform style games, you will need to solve puzzles (move bricks to trigger buttons, etc.) and avoid steam vents and swinging blades to progress through the game. Local Co-Op means parents and siblings can join in the fun on the same tv screen.

LOVE KNACK!

I love the Knack games. The adventure was fun and a great length. I loved the new abilities that Knack received in this game, especially the boomerang shot. The only downside to the came is the coop mode (reason for the 4 stars). In the coop mode you have to stay near each other while running around because it isn't split screen and the camera doesn't zoom out. One player can end up moving off screen when the other runs ahead. I found it to be aggravating.
